How have scientists figured out that the pacific plate is moving at about nine centimeters per year?
All of the tectonic plates move, but they move at different speeds depending on which plates are involved. The Pacific plate moves slightly more than four centimeters annually.
2.131 meters equals how many centimeters?
2.131 meters equles 213.1 centimeters because there is 100 centeimeters in a meter so you move the decimal over two places.

How many centimeters are in decameter?
AnswerI believe you are asking how many centimeters are in a decameter.The simple answer is 1000.Kilo Hecto Deca Meter Deci Centi Milli.010000 0.1000 1.0000 10.000 100.00 1000.0 10000You simply move the decimal point 4 places to the right. You have 1 decameter or in the illustration above 1.0000 decameters. Centimeter is 4 places to the right of decameter so move the decimal point the many places and you have 1000.0 centimeters.
According to theory of plate tectonics?

About how many centimeters does the Nazca Plate move in one year if it moves 1.0mm every four days?
then it moves 91.25mm each yearthen it says about how many centimeters ......it rounds to 91.3 then move the point to 9.13 centimeters a yearhow i got it:365 divided by 4 equals 91.25 mm

How many centimeters does crustal plate move away towards each other per year?
around three inchese per year about 7.5 centimeter
How long does it take plate tectonic to move?
Plate tectonics move about 2 centimeters every year. This is a very small amount of movement. Predicted in 2,000,000 years there will me another major difference in the formation of the continents

How fast does earth's lithospheric plates move?
Tectonic plates move about the same rate that finger nails or your hair grows (centimeters per year). However, it varies from plate to plate. Some move at 3 centimeters while other's move around 6.

Move it 2 places.
In California the pacific plate slides past the North American plate. If the pacific plate is moving at a speed of 5 centimeters per year how long will it take for the plate to travel 100 meters?
There are 100 centimeters in a meter. Thus 100 meters is 10000 centimeters 10000 divided by 5 centimeters per year = Two Thousand Years
